Siam Brasserie is a Thai restaurant at 87 Lavender Hill in Battersea. Its extensive menu covers the familiar balance of hot, sour, sweet, salty and aromatic flavours found across Thai cooking. Diners can begin with several small plates to share before choosing curries, seafood, wok dishes, noodles or rice as a main course.
Starters include vegetable spring rolls, chicken satay, fish cakes, prawn tempura, duck rolls, dumplings and soft shell crab. Tom yum soup combines lemongrass and galangal with a hot and sour broth, while tom kha brings those aromatics into a gentler coconut soup. Som tum, minced meat larb and grilled beef salad add fresh herbs, lime, chilli and crisp vegetables.
Green, red, yellow, Massaman and Panang curries offer different levels of heat, sweetness and richness, with coconut milk forming the base of each style. Wok dishes include chilli with basil, cashew nuts with vegetables, garlic and pepper, sweet and sour sauce, ginger and mushrooms or lemongrass with garlic. Seafood can be served with tamarind, chilli, curry, ginger or a fresh lime dressing.
Pad Thai, pad see ew and spicy drunken noodles sit beside laksa, spicy prawn noodle soup and Vietnamese style pho. Fried rice is available in both spicy and house versions, with jasmine, coconut, sticky, garlic and egg fried rice offered as sides. Mango sticky rice completes the meal with ripe fruit, coconut milk and glutinous rice, providing a cooling contrast after the restaurant’s chilli driven dishes.
